- Registration Number
- NCT03622827
- Lead Sponsor
- Nanjing Medical University
- Brief Summary
To assess the efficacy and safety of postoperative concurrent chemoradiotherapy combined with recombinant human endostatin (Endostar) in patients with high-risk early stage cervical cancer.
- Detailed Description
This is a pilot phase 2, single arm study to assess the efficacy and safety of concurrent chemoradiotherapy combined with recombinant human endostatin (Endostar) in early stage cervical cancer patients with high risk factor(s).
Postoperative pelvic radiotherapy starts 2-3 weeks after surgery. Intensity modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) is given five fractions per week at 1.8-2 Gy/fraction/day with total prescription dose of 45-50Gy to PTV region. The external beam radiotherapy should be completed within 6 weeks. Concurrent chemotherapy consists of cisplatin (75 mg/m2, day 1-3) and 5-fluorouracil (5-FU; 1000mg/m2/day, civ, day 1-4) for 2 cycles every 3 weeks. Recombinant human endostatin (Endostar,15mg/m2/d, civ, d1-7) is applied 3 days before the concurrent chemoradiotherapy for 2 cycles every 3 weeks.
Aimed to recruit total of 120 cases in this single arm study. The primary endpoint is 3-year disease-free survival and acute toxicity. Secondary endpoints include time to distant metastasis survival, local-regional recurrence free survival, 3 and 5-year overall survival, and safety and tolerability. Quality of life will be evaluated with EORTC-Q30.

- Sex
- Female
- Target Recruitment
- 120
- Aged between 18 and 70 years.
- Histologically confirmed adenocarcinoma or squamous cervical carcinomas.
- Chest CT scan and ultrasound must be done prior to surgery as to rule out distant metastasis.
- Operable patients with clinical diagnosis of FIGO stage IB-IIA cervical cancer.
- Complete radical hysterectomy of cervical cancer is mandatory. All gross diseases must have been removed at the end of surgery. All surgical margins of resection must be negative for tumor. Para-aortic lymph node sampling is performed according to gynaecologist decision.
- Patients with one of these risk factors:positive pelvic nodes, parametrial invasion, positive surgical margin.OR patients with at least two of following risk factors: tumor size≥4cm,lymphovascular space invasion,stromal invasion≥1/2.
- Performance status 0-2 (ECOG, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group).
- Adequate organ function is needed, including cardio-respiratory, hepato-renal and hematological reserves: Absolute neutrophil count (ANC)≥1.5×109/L;Platelet count≥100×109/L; ASAT&ALST<1.5 times upper limit of normal (ULN) (With hepatic metastases, ASAT&ALST<5.0 times upper limit of normal);Bilirubin <1.5 times ULN;Creatinine≤1.25×ULN or Creatinine clearance≥50 mL/min.
- Signed written informed consent prior to study entry.
- Previous radiation or chemotherapy treatment or major pelvic surgery.
- Patients with distant metastasis confirmed by imaging or pathology.
- Other uncured malignant tumors in the past five years, except the cured skin basal cell carcinoma and breast carcinoma in situ.
- Any prior anticancer therapy.
- Unable to tolerate postoperative concurrent chemoradiotherapy.
- Patients with evidence of being allergic to fluorouracil, cisplatin or Endostar.
- Patients with serious comorbidity that might potentially influence the practice of protocol, including severe infection, myocardial infarction, severe arrhythmia, severe cerebrovascular disease, severe mental disorder, etc.
- Patients with Heart related adverse events or thrombotic events in the past 6 months.

Group Intervention Description Chemoradiotherapy + Endostar Chemoradiotherapy+ Endostar Chemoradiotherapy with Endostar： * Chemoradiotherapy: pelvic radiotherapy with concurrent chemotherapy that consisted of cisplatin (75 mg/m2, day 1-3) and 5-fluorouracil (5-FU; 1000mg/m2/day,civ, day 1-4) for 2 cycles every 3 weeks. * Endostar: recombinant human endostatin (15mg/m2/d, civ, d1-7) is given 3 days before the chemotherapy every 3 weeks, total of two cycles during chemoradiotherapy course.
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method 3-year Disease-free survival 3 years From date of surgery until the date of first documented local-regional progression or distant metastasis (determined by CT or MRI scan and/or biopsy) or death (from any cause) assessed up to three years.
Acute toxicity 3 months Evaluate the treatment induced toxicity according to CTCAE 4.0 during the time of chemoradiotherapy and Endostar which starts from the first day of Endostar and lasts three months.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method 5-year overall survival rate 5 years Determine the 5-year overall survival rate in early-stage cervical cancer patients with high risk factors, defined as time from the date of surgery to death of all cause at time of 5 years after operation.
Time to distant metastasis survival 3 years Determine the non-distant metastasis survival in early-stage cervical cancer patients with high risk factors, defined as time from the date of surgery to first distant metastasis event (determined by CT or MRI scan and/or pathologic disease on biopsy).
Local-regional recurrence free survival 3 years Determine the local-regional recurrence free survival in early-stage cervical cancer patients with high risk factors, defined as time from the date of surgery to first local-regional recurrence event (determined by CT or MRI scan and/or pathologic disease on biopsy).
Quality of Life (QoL) 3 years Collect QoL data on early-stage cervical cancer patients with high risk factors. The data is measured by EORTC QLQ-C30 (Version 3.0) according to investigator collection at the starting and ending time of the adjuvant treatment. EORTC QLQ-C30 is a questionnaire developed to assess the quality of life of cancer patients. The core and disease-specific for cervix modules are selected to estimate treatment related influence on patients' life. The final score of the questionnaire is collected and analyzed according to detailed scoring procedures from manuals.
3-year overall survival rate 3 years Determine the 3-year overall survival rate in early-stage cervical cancer patients with high risk factors, defined as time from the date of surgery to death of all cause at time of 3 years after operation.
